Steampunk 101 – Resources

My dear husband and I were invited to give the Steampunk 101 panel at Conbust 2010. We were honored to do so, and had a great time! While we were babbling excitedly sharing our views the marvelous L.L. Tisdel sketched us in action! See how she captured the mad science/world dominating gleam in my dear von Hedwig’s eye? See how she made me look young and thin? What a lovely and talented young woman she is!

At the panel we offered a handout of resources that I’d like to share with you all here:
